Serge Ibaka hit 7-of-17 shots and two 3-pointers for 17 points, six boards and three blocks in Monday's loss to the Clippers.

Ibaka's rolling, just like he did back in the day in OKC, averaging 18.4 points, 5.2 rebounds, 2.0 blocks and 3.0 3-pointers on 55 percent shooting over his last five. Nice. Dec 12 - 1:07 AM

Serge Ibaka stayed hot on Sunday, making 8-of-13 shots with four 3-pointers en route to 20 points, four rebounds, one assist and one block.

After a lull in early/mid November, the 28-year-old Ibaka is quietly re-establishing himself as a mid-round PF with upside. The quality of competition has been part of his recent success, but over the past four games he's averaging 18.8 points on 60.4% shooting, 3.3 triples, 5.0 rebounds and 1.8 blocks. Ibaka's swats are particularly nice to see, given that they've declined for seven consecutive seasons. Dec 10 - 6:48 PM

Serge Ibaka finished with 21 points, two rebounds, an assist, a steal and a blocked shot in 27 minutes Friday in Memphis.

Ibaka was very efficient from the field, hitting 7-of-12, including 4-of-5 from behind the arc. He has been feeling it from the perimeter since flipping the calendar from November to December, hitting 9-of-14 (64.3 percent) on 3-pointers over the past three outings. He also has at least one blocked shot in eight straight contests. Dec 9 - 12:18 AM

Serge Ibaka hit 8-of-13 shots and two 3-pointers for 19 points, six rebounds, one steal and three blocks in 33 minutes of Tuesday's win over the Suns.

It wasn't a season high for Ibaka, but it was close, as his best two scoring games prior were a 21-point effort way back on Oct. 21, and another 19-point game back on Nov. 9. Ibaka went six straight games with a total of one 3-pointer to end the month of November, but looks better in December, averaging 17 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.5 blocks and 2.5 3-pointers on 14-of-23 shooting in his two games. Hopefully this is a sign that he's about ready to go on a hot run. Dec 5 - 10:35 PM

Delon Wright (right shoulder) has progressed to going through 3-on-3 work, although he remains without an official timetable to return.

This is a big step, and while the Raptors haven't offered an official timetable, it looks like there's a chance he'll be able to get back to the court around Christmas which lines up with the timetable that Adrian Wojnarowski initially reported. Fred VanVleet will continue to serve as Kyle Lowry's primary backup sans Wright, and he's worth owning as a low-end option in deep leagues.

Lucas Nogueira sustained a muscle tear in his right calf, and he was treated with a platelet-rich plasma injection (PRP) to enhance the healing process.

He will not play on Friday and he is out indefinitely. This is the second calf injury for Bebe since the preseason, and now he's likely out for multiple weeks to recover. He was starting to play well, but now it'll be Jakob Poeltl getting all the backup minutes at center. Plus, Pascal Siakam could benefit with more Serge Ibaka at the five as well. Poeltl is worth a look if you're in search of a big man.
